@shawnmiller: The online price seems to be $449 at the moment, including from the place featured on deals.woot a month ago (abcvacuumwarehouse.com), when it was priced at $399.

Target has the DC25 on clearance for $349 in-store. Other than being yellow instead of purple, it's the exact vacuum as the Animal, without the attachments.

You may then choose which attachments you want instead of paying for all of them. I'd suggest purchasing attachments from the cheapest reputable seller on eBay since on these warranty is not a major consideration (unlike the vac itself). The most expensive one is the turbo tool, which retails for $70. The other expensive one is the bare floors tool which lets you use it as you would a canister vac. I never use that one.

If purchasing all of the accessories the total will probably bust your $399 limit. So if the price constraint is most important then @tygerdave's refurb route is a good way to go. $369 for a refurb at abcvacuumwarehouse.com.

@shawnmiller: not necessarily, just wondering if the performance matched the hype. If it was one of those situations where you were just paying for the hype or the unique design, then I'd think too much. Not if it's quality though.

I'm not surprised in the least that the Woot office uses a Dyson vac. :D

My first Woot was a refurbed DC17 Animal for $260 and I love it. I'm always amazed how much it picks up every time I vacuum. I've had some other cheaper vacuums in the past, and this one is far and away the best I've owned. It didn't come with the bonus attachments, but I'm not sure how much I would have used them anyway. It maneuvers very well, though it's not the ball version you're looking at. FWIW, you could suck equally with the DC17, though it's a little bigger. Found it on Overstock for $263 shipped (with asthma attachments) with @perkalicious11 's coupon code. (http://deals.woot.com/deals/details/6737f8a3-d572-4ae3-9ecf-1339758d8801/dyson-dc17-asthma-and-allergy-vacuum-refurbished)

I had them price match with sears dyson dc25 all floors for $412.45 then applied 20% off coupon code TOPSECRET. They offer free shipping but since it's a big item, you have to pay a surcharge of $3. All in all with tax and shipping it came out to $350.

The thing about kohls.com customer service is that it's inconsistent. I had to call several times and each CSR would give me different informatipn each time. Like the first CSR told me that they cannot stack up a price match and a coupon code. Another CSR told me that they could for as long as the coupon max is 15%. I think I called at least 5 times till I got a CSR who would allow me to do the PM and the 20% CC.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
